Why We're Walking

  • 1 in 9 seniors over 65

      are living with Alzheimer's and more than 14 million people care for someone living with Alzheimer's every day.

  • Everyone knows someone

    living with Alzheimer's. It could be your parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, neighbor, or friend who needs AFA's services next.

  • More than 6 million

    Americans are living with Alzheimer’s, a number which is projected to more than double by 2060.
Raise funds toward your goal!

* Every person who raises $100 will get a t-shirt, while supplies last.

* Raise $200, and you will receive a walk-branded, environmentally friendly stainless steel water bottle, while supplies last.

 

Raising $100 is easier than you think. Read below for some tips!
